THE OLD BRICK'S RALLY. The friends and members of the Old Brick Church are looking forward with pleasure to Sunday, August 15th, when the annual rally is to be held. For several seasons past it has been the custom to hold this rally each August and from year to year the interest has Ucreased. Last year an all day service was held and a ten thousand dollar endowment fund for the old church completed. The committee will this year make its report to the congregation. There will also be good speaking and an excellent musical program. Mr. Heber banning and Mrs. William J. Fleming, both of Philadelphia, and well known soloists will sing, it has been the custom each year for the church to furnish a means of transportation from Cape May City to the church and the the same plan will be followed this year. Those desiring to attend will please leave their name at the office of the Star and Wave before noon, Saturday, August 14th.

p. LONDON ROMANCE ENDS t IN CAPE MAY. Frow Wednesday's daily Star and Wave 5 Many years ago when the principals 8 were children, playing in the stroeta of 7 the world's metropolis, and perhaps elidr ing down their cellar doors, in the back t yards of their parents homes, cupid shot £ his darts, which united two hearts, that ever since have beat as one, although . separated by thousands of miles of briny deep. Thus reads a chapter from i. the romantic love story of Jeremiah C'Day, of London, England, and Miss - Kathleen McGann, formerly a subject of L -His Majesty, the King of Eugland, r* hut -for some years a resident of Cape May. Yesterday the happy pair secured a marriage license at j City ' Hall, Mr. O'Day having traveled all the way from the British Isles to , e claim his blushing bride. We congratulate Mr. O'Day upon hav- ( „ ing safely crossed the Atlantic, without , having had bis right of way disputed by , any of Kaiser Bill's submarines, and , ' would suggest that this side of the ocean , . is a safer place to spend his honeymoon, , just now, than the European side. , o • j BUSINESS MAN MAKING GOOD. ( Frow Wednesday's daily Star and Wave , One of the men who recently came to j this city to establish a business, and is j doing exceptionally well in his lipe, is M. Minner. He came here from New j Y'ork City in search of hie health, and ( decided that while here enjoying Cape -5 May's invigorating air, he might as well j employ his active mind in a business way." Being .a first- class jeweler and oculist, and having had an excellent trade in New York, it was an easy mat- F ter for Mr. Minner to continue the same line here. He made a very happy sc- b when he chose our large hearted u and genial Dr. Ashburn as an associate a in business, setting up shop in the lat- h ter'e quarters. Two such affable and J, agreeable gentlemen are sure to get on well in any undertaking, consequently j it is not surprising to see the success y that Mr. Minner is meeting with. In j, fact, he is so well pleased with Cape g May and business prospects here that j, he contemplates setting up shop, perma- jj nently in our city. Cape May can not r, too many business men, of the type of Mr. Minner, therefore, we bid him God-speed as a citizen of this resort.

t ELECTRIC SPARKS Modern educational methods demand b *hat the Jim Hill chair of transportation - at Harvard be filled by a professional knocker of railroads. The district benedict who claims he wed in a daze has nothing on most mar- - ried men who have officiated in a aimI ilar capacity. ! One drawback to the Kaiser's suecess- > ful Eastern campaign lies in the amount of iron that will be required for crosses. Not even an average American jury 1 will deny that Thaw shows excellent judgment in insisting that he's sane. Platonic affection may be all right ' but it ought to stop considerably on * the near side of a one-minute soul kiss. Ohio's "back to nature" cult exhibits methods in its madness by seeking mossy dells instead of trenches. Experience is a great teacher, but even ' experience can't teach some people. A woman fights harder to get into ' society than she prays to get into heaven. ' The man who says lie is glad he is 1 married is either an optimist or a liar. ' Poverty is said to be a sure cure for ' dyspepsia; the cure however is worse 1 than the disease. ' When a Mississippi Governor threat- - vv.VI 1IY.1 lUICMl-

ens to cut the throat of a State SenaI tor from ear to ear, we have a beauti1 ful illustration of one not too proud to 1 n « , Chicago's street car men think better . of arbitration now. Visible in the ancient haunts once more 1 are the fans of electric and baseball. t Much interest would attach to an authoritative edition of "Who's who in Mexico." England is economizing but has not yet begun eating Hamburger steak. G. Bernard Shaw now says "I told you so." Something terrible is likely to -come to such a man. It is to be hoped that the United States will never become accustomed to the door mat frame of mind. Another interesting matter of speculation is "Why do the trousers of *11 public men bag at the knees?" Between Mr. Bryan and Col. Roosevelt President Wilson should be able to represent a fair average of neutrality. When the June bride settles down to cook her first dinner of corn, beef and cabbage, the romance of married life is . not necessarily over.Having been shown up by the rain for some months, the just and unjust will be plaoed on a common level and fried by the dun. On the surface there is nothing to disturb the friendly relations existing between this country and Germany. But under the surface there are those submarines j Good things to eat 'from Arnold's auto delivery. Phone your order, •

POLLYANNA GROWS UP p The Second Glad Book by Eleanor H. s Porter. ' Hundreds of thousands of readers of The Philadelphia Record know Pollyanna, the delightful little girl who brings sunshine into every home she enters. Tbey made her acquaintance when ' Eleanor H. Porter's "Polly an Ha— The Glad Book" was published serially in 1 The Philadelphia Sunday Record. 1 Many readers have pronounced this s the most entertaining story ever pubf lished in The Record and it baa been ' praised everywhere by critics as being ' full of throbbing life and its realities and a strikingly good example of gen- ' ' nine literature. ' Now another "Pollyanna" story is 1 ' about to begin in this same newspaper. J' The Sunday Record has succeeded in se- j curing the rights to publish serially the j ■ book "Pollyanna Grows Pp," by the j 1 same versatile author. It will be found [ * fascinating as the original success j and fully up to its quality. It deals ; c with later and more mature experiences 8 of the same charming heroine and her friends. It is a story that will bring a and swift response in the hearts of " young and old. It is a real "sunshine f book" one which every member' of the will enjoy. * The first installment will £e~ printed " the magazine section of The Philadelphia Record on Sup day, August 1st. ^ local newsdealer will fill your orfor delivery. 8 TWO MEN RISK TOO FAR. c. Wednesday's daily Star and Wave d Yesterday afternoon a man, bathing the band pier and the iron pier, 6 caught by the strong undertow, and * although only in the water, waist deep, was unable to keep on his feet and had to be fished out by the life-guards. At about six o'clock last evening a ^ .who it is said stays with the Walsh family at 28 Guerney Street, attempted to swim from in front of the | Stockton baths to Shields baths.
